Transliteration:( Wa'adal laahul lazeena aamanoo wa 'amilus saalihaati lahum maghfiratunw wa ajrun 'azeem )
48. From this verse emerge two issues:Â
1. Faith enjoys superiority over deeds, because mention of faith precedes that of action.
2. It is important to complement faith with good deeds. Only he can eat the fruit who protects the roots and its branches.
49. From this we learn that Allah Almighty has promised every God-fearing Muslim forgiveness and rewards. Promise of Allah is indeed firm, but credence for this lies with the type of death one will experience. He who is out of the fold of faith will himself fall out of this promise. Allah is true to what He has said, but His servants turn out to be unfaithful and false.
